- One or more embodiments provide a notification based on determining that a driver has deviated from a determined driving behavior.
- the conventional approaches for monitoring the driver's actions typically monitored aspects such as, for example, the driver's driving speed, the driver's braking actions, the driver's head movements, and/or the eye movements of the driver. These monitored aspects of the driver can be recorded and displayed.
- the conventional approaches are generally limited to determining whether the driver has violated any applicable laws. For example, the conventional approaches generally determine whether the driver has exceeded a speed limit, whether the driver has applied the brake too hard, whether the user is driving at a speed that is far below the speed limit, whether the driver is making unsafe lane changes, and/or whether the driver is tailgating.
- the conventional approaches can determine whether the driver has violated any laws, the conventional approaches are unable to protect the driver from dangers which arise from driving practices that are unsafe but that are nevertheless legal.
- a driver can deviate from the driver's typical driving behavior to the driver's detriment.
- the driver can deviate from the driver's typical driving behavior if the driver is distracted, fatigued, upset, happy, experiencing road rage, and/or enduring an adverse medical condition, for example.
- the driver can possibly cause harm.
- one or more embodiments of the invention are directed to a system that: (1) learns a driver's typical driving behavior/pattern, (2) recognizes when the driver is deviating from the driver's typical driving behavior/pattern, and (3) provides a notification regarding the deviation.
- One or more embodiments of the invention can provide the notification regarding the deviation to the driver and/or to other authorized recipients. Upon receiving the notification, the driver and/or the authorized recipients can thus take preventative measures in order to avoid potential future harm.
- one or more embodiments can allow the driver to be aware of the potentially harmful deviation even if the deviation has not violated any laws.
- a driver can possibly avoid/prevent future traffic accidents.
- One or more embodiments of the invention are directed to a cognitive system that can learn a driver's behavior.
- one or more embodiments learn how the driver reacts to different road/driving conditions.
- the cognitive system can learn how the driver reacts when the driver encounters heavy/light traffic, when the driver is driving on local/highway roads, when the driver is driving at different times of the day, and/or when the driver encounters various weather conditions.
- the cognitive system of one or more embodiments can use a global positioning system (GPS) to determine the location of the driver's vehicle. Based on the determined vehicle location and the current time, one or more embodiments can then refer to one or more information sources in order to determine the weather conditions and the traffic conditions that are encountered by the driver. In the course of learning the driving behavior, the cognitive system of one or more embodiments can also receive data from a vehicle camera and/or data from one or more vehicle sensors.
- GPS global positioning system
- Sensor data can include data such as speedometer data, blind-spot monitoring data, forward collision sensor data, water sensor data, rain sensor data, barometer data, Doppler radar data, proximity sensor data, position sensor data, Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) data, and/or camera data, for example.
- data such as speedometer data, blind-spot monitoring data, forward collision sensor data, water sensor data, rain sensor data, barometer data, Doppler radar data, proximity sensor data, position sensor data, Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) data, and/or camera data, for example.
- LIDAR Light Detection and Ranging
- FIG. 1 illustrates a cognitive system 110 that provides a notification based on a determined deviation from a determined driving behavior in accordance with one or more embodiments of the invention.
- Cognitive system 110 can correspond to a hardware-based controller that includes an analyzer unit 112 and a processor 111 .
- Cognitive system 110 can operate in conjunction with a GPS 113 , one or more cameras 114 , one or more sensors 115 , and/or one or more transmitters 116 to transmit the notification.
- the notification can be generated by a notification generator 132 .
- the notification can be received by a receiver via a notification system 133 of a mobile device 121 .
- the notification can also be provided to the driver via an infotainment system 134 of the vehicle 131 .
- analyzer unit 112 can be configured to interpret and to record how the driver reacts to the different weather and/or traffic conditions that are encountered at the determined location at the determined time.
- Weather and traffic conditions may be determined by accessing a traffic information system 117 , a weather information system 118 , and/or by analysis of the vehicle sensors 115 and cameras 114 .
- the cognitive system 110 of one or more embodiments of the invention can be trained. The system can learn how a specific user drives on the different types of roads and under the different conditions. Cognitive system 110 can be constantly updated over time to adapt to a driver's changing habits (e.g., the way in which a driver drives under certain condition at age 18 may be different than the way that same driver drives when they are 25).
- the cognitive system 110 may also use sensors 115 and/or cameras 114 to determine if a driver's habits vary if one or more passengers are in the vehicle.
- the system may be able to identify passengers (i.e., by using facial recognition on captured camera data) to determine a driver's habits with specific passengers.
- Cognitive system 110 can learn that the driver does not exceed the speed limit by more than a threshold number of miles per hour. For example, cognitive system 110 can learn that the driver typically drives three-miles-per-hour under the speed limit, while the driver is driving on a highway, when the traffic is light, and when the weather conditions are normal.
- cognitive system 110 can determine that the driver generally drives 10 miles-per-hour below the speed limit when encountering poor weather conditions (such as, for example, rain or snow). Cognitive system 110 can also determine that the driver rarely or never tailgates other drivers under normal traffic conditions. Specifically, cognitive system 110 can determine a typical following distance for the driver that is based on a current speed (e.g., a driver typically maintains a distance of 50 feet behind other drivers when traveling at 40 mph). Cognitive system 110 can also determine that the driver rarely makes sudden lane changes.
- a current speed e.g., a driver typically maintains a distance of 50 feet behind other drivers when traveling at 40 mph.
- Cognitive system 110 can also determine that the driver rarely makes sudden lane changes.
- one or more embodiments can use sensor data from the driver's vehicle 131 (e.g., data received from a forward warning collision distance sensor, data received from a wheel angle sensor, data relating to a GPS position, etc.) to capture information about the driver's typical driving behavior at each location and under each condition.
- sensor data from the driver's vehicle 131 e.g., data received from a forward warning collision distance sensor, data received from a wheel angle sensor, data relating to a GPS position, etc.
- one or more embodiments can be configured to detect the road/driving conditions that are currently encountered by the driver while driving.
- the current road/driving conditions can be determined based on the data that is received from the previously-described GPS system 113 , vehicle camera 114 , and/or vehicle sensor 115 .
- One or more embodiments can then compare the driver's current reaction (to the current road/driving conditions) against the driver's historical behavior under similar road/driving conditions in the past.
- One or more embodiments can use a driving pattern deviation detector 119 .
- One or more embodiments can operate in conjunction with a database 120 (of data that is accumulated by the cognitive learning system) that contains the parameters that define the driver's historical driving behavior.
- Database 120 can also store profiles of one or more drivers, the typical driving patterns of the drivers, and information regarding whom to contact in the event of a detected driving deviation.
- one or more embodiments can provide a notification of the driver's deviation to the driver's mobile device 121 .
- the system of one or more embodiments can recognize specific roads and conditions that the driver had previously encountered in order to compare driver's current driving patterns/behavior against the driver's historical driving behavior. If a driver is currently driving on a road that had not yet been driven upon by the driver in the current conditions, then the cognitive system of one or more embodiments of the invention can search for similar roads and conditions that the user had previously encountered in order to determine how the driver is expected to drive on the road in the given conditions. In view of the above, with one or more embodiments of the invention, the driver's current trip can be monitored and compared against the driving patterns that the cognitive system has learned based on the stored instances of the driver's driving.
- the cognitive system of one or more embodiments of the invention can detect whether the driver is deviating from the driver's expected historical/typical driving behavior.
- Examples of detectable driving deviations can include, but are not limited to, differences in speed, differences in reacting to adverse weather conditions or to other nearby vehicles, differences in following distance, and/or differences in performing lane changes.
- a detectable difference in speed can be instances where the system determines that the driver is driving faster or slower than the expected/typical driving speed by a threshold amount.
- a detectable difference in reacting to adverse weather conditions can include instances where the system determines that the driver is not slowing down in adverse weather conditions that the driver would normally slow down under.
- a detectable difference in following distance can include instances where the system determines that the driver is driving closer than normal to other vehicles for the current traffic conditions.
- a detectable difference in performing lane changes can include instances where the system determines that the driver is making unsafe lane changes, where the lane change occurs without enough distance between vehicles or where the lane change occurs without any signaling performed by the driver.
- the cognitive system can transmit a notification to the driver and/or to authorized recipients.
- the authorized recipients one or more embodiments can inform friends, family, and/or law enforcement that the driver has deviated from the driver's typical driving behavior.
- the system can transmit the notification to the driver by transmitting the notification via the vehicle speakers of the vehicle, via a heads-up display on the vehicle windshield, through a vehicle-infotainment system, to the user's mobile device, etc.
- the driver can become aware that the driver is driving in an atypical manner. As such, if the driver is driving in an atypical manner as a result of being distracted, being lost in thought, and/or experiencing road rage, the driver can realize that preventative action is needed.
- the system can transmit the notification to authorized recipients.
- authorized recipients can include, for example, friends, family members, and/or loved ones of the driver.
- the system can provide the notification to these authorized recipients via a transmission to their mobile devices.
- the authorized recipients Upon receiving the transmission via their mobile devices, the authorized recipients can speak to the user at the time of receiving the transmission or at a later time.
- an authorized recipient can call the driver through a Bluetooth speaker that is within the vehicle of the driver.
- the driver Upon receiving communication from an authorized recipient, the driver can become aware that the driver needs to alter the driver's current driving behavior. If a driver alters the current atypical driving pattern in response to receiving the notification, then the atypical driving pattern can be omitted from being incorporated into the driver's expected driving behavior. As such, the atypical driving behavior is not incorporated into the driver's historical driving behavior.
- the cognitive system can notify law enforcement if the current driving pattern is determined to be illegal.
- the cognitive system can control one or more vehicle systems to modify the operation of the vehicle in order to conform to the driver's historical driving behavior. For example, if the driver is currently driving at a faster speed compared to the historical driving behavior, one or more embodiments can modify operation of the vehicle by reducing the vehicle speed. If the driver is following another vehicle at a closer following distance compared to the historical driving behavior, one or more embodiments can modify operations of the vehicle by increasing the following distance, for example.

- the traffic conditions can be determined based on, at least, information from a traffic information system and/or a weather information system, for example.
- the cognitive system of one or more embodiments can determine whether the driver has previously driven on the current road under the current conditions.
- one or more embodiments determine an expected driving behavior for the driver based on the historical driving behavior when previously driving on the current road under conditions that are the same as the current conditions. One or more embodiments then compare the expected driving behavior against the how the driver is currently driving. If the driver has not previously driven on the current road under the current conditions, then, at 380 , the cognitive system determines an expected driving behavior for the driver based on the driver's historical driving behavior when previously driving on a road similar to the current road, and when driving under conditions similar to the current conditions. At 360 , the cognitive system determines whether the driver has deviated from the driver's expected driving behavior.

- Cloud computing is a model of service delivery for enabling convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g. networks, network bandwidth, servers, processing, memory, storage, applications, virtual machines, and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or interaction with a provider of the service.
- This cloud model may include at least five characteristics, at least three service models, and at least four deployment models.
- On-demand self-service a cloud consumer can unilaterally provision computing capabilities, such as server time and network storage, as needed automatically without requiring human interaction with the service's provider.
- Resource pooling the provider's computing resources are pooled to serve multiple consumers using a multi-tenant model, with different physical and virtual resources dynamically assigned and reassigned according to demand. There is a sense of location independence in that the consumer generally has no control or knowledge over the exact location of the provided resources but may be able to specify location at a higher level of abstraction (e.g., country, state, or datacenter).
- Rapid elasticity capabilities can be rapidly and elastically provisioned, in some cases automatically, to quickly scale out and rapidly released to quickly scale in. To the consumer, the capabilities available for provisioning often appear to be unlimited and can be purchased in any quantity at any time.
- PaaS Platform as a Service
- the consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure including networks, servers, operating systems, or storage, but has control over the deployed applications and possibly application hosting environment configurations.
- IaaS Infrastructure as a Service
- the consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure but has control over operating systems, storage, deployed applications, and possibly limited control of select networking components (e.g., host firewalls).
- Private cloud the cloud infrastructure is operated solely for an organization. It may be managed by the organization or a third party and may exist on-premises or off-premises.
- Public cloud the cloud infrastructure is made available to the general public or a large industry group and is owned by an organization selling cloud services.
- Hybrid cloud the cloud infrastructure is a composition of two or more clouds (private, community, or public) that remain unique entities but are bound together by standardized or proprietary technology that enables data and application portability (e.g., cloud bursting for load-balancing between clouds).
- a cloud computing environment is service oriented with a focus on statelessness, low coupling, modularity, and semantic interoperability.

- cloud computing environment 50 comprises one or more cloud computing nodes 10 with which local computing devices used by cloud consumers, such as, for example, personal digital assistant (PDA) or cellular telephone 54 A, desktop computer 54 B, laptop computer 54 C, and/or automobile computer system 54 N may communicate.
- Nodes 10 may communicate with one another. They may be grouped (not shown) physically or virtually, in one or more networks, such as Private, Community, Public, or Hybrid clouds as described hereinabove, or a combination thereof.
- This allows cloud computing environment 50 to offer infrastructure, platforms and/or software as services for which a cloud consumer does not need to maintain resources on a local computing device.
- computing devices 54 A-N shown in FIG. 6 are intended to be illustrative only and that computing nodes 10 and cloud computing environment 50 can communicate with any type of computerized device over any type of network and/or network addressable connection (e.g., using a web browser).
